    Bugger. Due back at work in Wellington on the 14th, so not really feasible.

    Oh well, never mind

    I believe the author of said PM has never been on one of the rides mentioned either, so I have no idea where he would be getting his info from. Nor has he ridden ever with dangerous.

    Probably not in your dictionary but I'm sure you would've spelt it at least once.

    Be buggered if I know where the info is coming from either. Yeah we all know that D likes being out front BUT, on just about all occasions, he also makes sure no members of a group are left behind at intersections, turn offs, etc. He will also go to the back of the group and check out what's going on there before making his way back to the front (and quite often observing people in the process).

    Keep up the good work. I know I've learnt a shitload from talking to and watching you.

    *sigh* So much for being an attentive forum user I gues.

    So did you actually get infracted?

    Aww come on that's just over the top. That's just beyond ridiculous!
    Guess we should make the Chch wednesday cruisy night rides thread point to the real deal and keep it on the www.nzsbf.co.nz forum instead. Seems that's what the mods want.

    bloody bollocks is what it is... how the hell can one person be infracted twice for the same "error" by two different people?? i mean, 2 cops cannot write out 2 tickets for the exact same offence!

    the really happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery when on a detour.

    yeah a bit like writing out a ticket for speeding when you weren't and not getting one for failing to wear your seatbelt when you didn't.

    What exactly is taking a thread offtopic meant to mean? I woulda thought 'Stirring' would be a more suitable offence, given that both posts were very much on the topic at hand BUT were probably meant to provoke a response. Guess we aint allowed lively discussion on KB anymore...

    So let me get this right: we can discuss alcohol recipies but NOT food recipies on a thread about a weekly evening ride?
    Given that most rides ends at a food and drink place, that seems a little odd, but I guess I am but a pleb and certainly not knowledgeble enough to know the grand scheme of things.
    Must always defers to my elders... or is it youngers? Buggered if I know, too many rules for me.

    Dangerous has had least three posts deleted, provocative maybe, off topic no. IMHO of course...

    Ummm, not for the same post... OAB and my self were having some fun last night with a moderator (cos Im major news in the mods forum, they all on my case cos im about to blow the place up)
    Yeah we were posting off topic but just about bacon and egg pie, no abuse, stiring or anything like that, hell its the festive season we should be having fun.

    IMO all threads end up off topic hell this ones taking a detour at the moment, but thats cos I reckon the threads done its job... Thanks for the support people

    This is all getting a bit silly. And could the PMs to me on this topic, what ever it is supposed to be, please stop.

    As I have told a couple of the protagonists who have PMed me, I am not much interested in off-site politics. As a Moderator I endeavour to maintain some impartiality and deal with posts based on their on-site content. A few weeks ago when this nonsense erupted, a couple of people were "great mates" and Moderators were over-reacting in terms of their responses. If "great mates" are being misunderstood, then perhaps they should strive for a bit more clarity in terms of what they post, or stop playing Jedi mind-games with each other via this site. Or, preferably, both.

    This Moderator is getting tired of this. Please make it stop.

    Ohh man, my threads being hijacked
    Hey Hitch we can make it stop but IMHO it is 99% brought on by the moderators them selves (Im not counting you in on this) they get peoples backs up by targeting certain people you know what I mean look at ya mod forum... hell am I really that bad?
    Check out my reps/pm's and look at the amount of decent long time KBer's that are sick of the new regime (did I spell that right? was a tricky one) the mods adhere to.

    And umm I think you have worn a bit of flack cos the real stern mods are all at the Wangers racing.

    you know the old saying, cant handle the heat get outa the kitchen

    Seriously tho... the Initial pm everyone was mentioning, you were not privileged to receive Hitcher (neither were most people), and it did disparage a longstanding member (in private where he was unable to reply) to a whole lot of other members for no reason at all. You say offsite politics, but this was one member abusing another on KB; they had only ever meet once in person and there was no animosity then, the ginga even intro'ed himself and shook the others hand. Quite frankly I wouldn't have wasted my time. And funnily enough it had nothing really to do with this thread, but there ya go.

    One has a bee in his bonnet over fuck knows what and wont let it go, the other is a ginga.
